AP World History or Pre-AP World History

Pre-College Topics High School Life

Hi! I am currently a freshman (9th grader) in high school and course selections are due soon for next year. I don’t know if I should take AP World History or Pre-AP World History next year in 10th grade

Here is my tentative schedule:
English II Pre-AP
Chemistry Pre-AP
AP Stats
Pre-Calculus Pre-AP
1 semester Pre-AP Psychology and 1 semester AP Psychology
Spanish II
AP/Pre-AP World History

I will participate in 2-3 clubs, I have a blog, I volunteer at least once a week and I do ballet twice a week as far as extra curriculars go.

I took Honors World History first (I’m taking AP next year) and it will probably help before taking AP.

I would encourage it. Learning to take the AP test for this class is a good experience, since it teaches you how to answer questions in a quick fashion, and how to write for AP tests. These things can sort of be transferred primarily to AP Lang, Lit, APUSH and AP Euro.

Thank you for your help!
